Question 1 (13 marks) A charge Q is located on the top-left corner of a square. Charges of 2Q, 3Q and 4Q are located on the othe

r corners as shown above in the Figure. Assuming each side of the square is 5cm in length, and the charge Q= 2.5 µC, determine the net force exerted on the 2Q charge due to the other charges.

Answer:

F = 45 (2.4142 i ^ + 4.414 j ^)

  F = 226.40 N,           θ= 61.3

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use that the forces are vectors and we will add them, the force due to being electric charges must comply, go Coulomb's law

         F₁₂ = k q₁ q₂ / r₁₂²

To apply this equation to our case, they indicate that all charges are of the same sign and their value, also the charge Q is located in the upper left corner, unfortunately the diagram of the other charges is not loaded, but the most general is that is in sequence, see attached, for the sum of the forces let's add its components

x-axis (horizontal)

         Fₓ = F₂₁ + F₂₄ₓ

Let's use trigonometry for the force component, as the weathering figure is a square the angle between the force and the x axis is 45

        cos 45 = F₂₄ₓ / F₂₄

         F₂₄ₓ = F₂₄ cos 45

y-axis (vertical)

        F_{y} = F₂₃ + F_{24y}

        sin 45 = F_{24y} / F₂₄

        F_{24y} = F₂₄ sin 45

let's search every distance

The side of the square is worth l = 5cm = 0.05 m

we can find the diagonal with the Pythagorean theorem

         d = √(l² + l²) = l √2

now we can search every force

         F₂₁ = k q₁ q₂ / r₁₂²

         F₂₁ = k Q 2Q / l²

         F₂₁ = k 2Q² / l²

this force points in the positive x direction

         F₂₃ = k q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²

         F₂₃ = k 2Q 3Q / l²

this force points in the direction of the positive y

         F₂₄ = k q₄q₂ / d²

         F₂₄ = k 4Q 2Q / 2 l²

let's find the resultant in each x

X axis

        Fₓ = k 2Q² / l² + k 8Q² / 2 l²    cos 45

        Fₓ = k 2Q² / l² (1 + 4/2 cos 45)

        Fₓ = k 2Q²/ l²   2.4142 i ^

Axis y

       F_{y} = k 6Q² / l² + k 8Q² / 2 l²    sin 45

       F_{y} = k 2Q² / l² (3 + 4/2 sin45)

       F_{y} = k 2Q² / l² (4,414)

       

the resultant force

       F = Fₓ i ^ + F_{y} j ^

       F = k 2Q² / l²      ( 2.4142 i ^ + 4.414 j ^)

       

let's substitute the values

       F = 9 10⁹ 2 (2.5 10⁻⁶) 2 / 0.05²      (2.4142 i ^ + 4.414 j ^)

       F = 45 (2.4142 i ^ + 4.414 j ^)

The result we can give is this form and in the form of module and angle

             

let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the modulus

            F =√ (Fₓ² +  F_{y}²)

            F = 45 √ (2.4142² + 4.414²)

            F = 226.40 N

we use trigonometry for the angle, measured from the x-axis

           tan θθ = Fy / Fx

          θ  = tan⁻¹ (4.414 / 2.4142)

           θ= 61.3

A long straight cylindrical shell has an inner radius R_i and an outer radius R_0. It carries a current i, uniformly distributed
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is option D

- Wire is on the cylinder axis and carries current i in the direction opposite to that of the current in the shell

Explanation:

- It cannot be Option E, because the magnetic field outside the wire would not be 0 due to the current carried by the conductor

-Also, the parallel wire cannot carry current in the same direction because, that would amplify the magnetic field created by the outer cylinder (since B is dir. proportional to the current) -and now, that leaves only option C and D. If, it is Option C, then that means one side of the cylinder would be more closer to the parallel wire than the other, so there would be different B fields on the two opposite sides of the cylinder. So, that means the answer is option D.

The intensity of the radiation from the Sun measured on Earth is 1360 W/m2 and frequency is f = 60 MHz. The distance between the
Mama L [17]

Answer: (a) power output = 3.85×10²⁶W

(b). There is no relative change in power as it is independent from frequency

(c). 590 W/m²

Explanation:

given Radius between earth and sun to be = 1.50 × 10¹¹m

Intensity of the radiation from the sun measured on earth to be = 1360 W/m²

Frequency = 60 MHz

(a). surface area A of the sun on earth is = 4πR²

substituting value of R;

A = 4π(.50 × 10¹¹)² = 2.863 10²³×m²

A = 2.863 10²³×m²

now to get the power output of the sun we have;

<em>P </em>sun = <em>I </em><em>sun-earth </em><em>A </em><em>sun-earth</em>

where A = 2.863 10²³×m², and <em>I </em> is 1360 W/m²

<em>P </em>sun =  2.863 10²³ × 1360

<em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W

(c). surface area A of the sun on mars is = 4πR²

now we substitute value of 2.28 ×10¹¹ for R sun-mars, we have

A sun-mars = 4π(2.28× 10¹¹)²

A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

now to calculate the intensity of the sun;

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em><em>P </em>sun / A sun-mars

where <em>P </em>sun = 3.85×10²⁶W and A sun-mars = 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars =  </em>3.85×10²⁶W / 6.53 × 10²³m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>589.6 ≈ 590 W/m²

<em>I </em><em>sun-mars = </em>590 W/m²
